The general's golden mouth and jade words set the rules, and it is a good thing to divide the silver, and all aspects have been taken care of, who will not be able to put forward opinions clearly, and everyone said in unison: "The general is wise!" ”

"Excellent! Liu Quan, settle the account! ”

Liu Quan took out the abacus and crackled, and said: "A total of 40,000 taels of silver, the first equal part is 16,000 taels in total, and the general and Master Lin are each 8,000 taels; The second division was divided into two parts, and the two gentlemen were four thousand taels each; The third tranche was divided into four thousand, and each of them received two thousand taels.

The minimum is also two thousand taels, Tan Shan and the others are of course crying with joy, Sun Yuanhua can't help but nod his head - you must know that he is the governor of the imperial history of the right to Denglai, and enjoys the treatment of the fourth grade, the monthly salary is only twenty-four stones, which is equivalent to three or forty taels of silver, although you don't have to rely on that little money as a governor, but he has never been greedy or corrupt, and he can't talk about any savings, and these four thousand taels of silver is a clean money that can be obtained steadily without spending any effort, which is enough for him to live a decent life that is not inferior to that of a four-grade official-of course, In the past, the source of this decent life was by no means the few servants of the imperial court, but it was closely related to the power in his hands, and this has been the case throughout the ages.

This kind of dividend is for the core management in the system, similar to the equity incentive mechanism of the enterprise, in order to let these core personnel and the Qiongzhou camp form a community of interests, and work hard to achieve the long-term goals of the Qiongzhou camp. As for other positions such as stewards who do not have dividends, they are naturally paid.

Xia Nan also knows some of the officialdom system of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang is from a poor background, extremely harsh on officials, and Yulu is the lowest level in all dynasties, and even some descendants evaluate that the Ming Dynasty officials' Yulu can't even afford to eat, although it is exaggerated, but it also shows that Yulu is low. For example, Hai Rui, who is known for his uprightness and honesty, has served as a state judge, the head of the household department, the head of the military department, Shang Baocheng, the left and right of the two capitals, and the right and imperial history.

Although the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty was superficial, inefficient, and corrupt, Xia Nan, who had managed a modern enterprise, did not think that blindly treating officials and fighting corruption could save the entire bureaucracy, and only by ensuring that the income of officials could meet a decent life, and at the same time strengthening the supervision and restraint of corrupt behavior, could the bureaucracy operate more healthily and normally.

He is now only a military general, although the jurisdiction and influence of the territory is limited, but the Qiongzhou battalion will eventually go out of Qiongzhou, the Central Plains, now in a relatively closed and narrow environment with the concept of modern enterprises to establish a set of administrative system, can be regarded as a kind of pilot, if it can be successful, it can be promoted to the whole country in the future.

"These are your dividends, and there are also monthly salaries for each department. For example, the manager of each factory, Yue Feng ...... "Xia Nan thought about it, "Let's distribute it according to the standard of the imperial court magistrate." ”

Liu Quan hurriedly asked: "Dare to ask the general, the officials are all distributed in their true colors and folded colors, is our moon gift distributed rice, grain, cloth or silver?" ”

Xia Nan ignored this, as a traverser, subconsciously thought that ancient times were the same as modern times, and the wages were all found gold, patted his head and said: "All are discounted silver." ”

Sima De interjected and asked: "Qipinzhi County's monthly rice is seven stones and five buckets, and the year is ninety stones, is the silver discounted according to the price of rice in the imperial court or the market price?" If according to the price of rice in the imperial court, at most one tael of silver and one stone, and according to the market price, the minimum is three taels and one stone, and the difference between the two is not small. He was originally a low-level official of the Nanjing Military Department, who had experienced the warmth and coldness of officialdom and knew the distress of middle- and lower-level officials, so he had this question.

A tael of silver and a stone is not seven taels a month? Xia Nan shook his head: "Discount silver at the market price." "The income of the factory manager is too low, and after a long time, he will inevitably find a way to control his own jurisdiction, which will lead to corruption in his position, and the gains will outweigh the losses. Zhu Yuanzhang's peeling and stuffing grass can't stop officials from corrupting, and he can't do it.

Sima De nodded, that is, more than twenty taels a month, and two or three hundred taels a year, which is really not low. I heard that each factory has a bonus at the end of the year, and he doesn't know how much, but it should be a lot more than the monthly salary.

Xia Nan continued: "In addition to dividends, everyone here should have a monthly salary. It's just that the Qiongzhou camp is just start-up, and many positions have not yet been decided, and when the time is ripe, I will carefully ponder the setting of the organization. At present, it will be determined according to the five and six grades of the imperial court, and Mr. Sun and Mr. Sima will temporarily refer to the five grades of the five grades, and the rest of you will refer to the six grades. ”

The official grade of the Ming Dynasty is very strange, the grade of civil officials is generally not high, and the relationship between their political status and grade is not great. Of course, after the Jiajing Dynasty, the bachelors were generally awarded three orphans or part-time scholars to improve their grades, and most of them were first-class, but the cabinet scholar position itself was still the fifth grade, and the ancestral system could not be changed. However, Xia Nan did not intend to copy the grade system of the imperial court, just for the convenience of distributing Yulu.

The monthly salary of the official of the fifth grade is sixteen stones, which is equivalent to forty-eight taels of silver, and five hundred and seventy-six taels a year; It is six pins and ten stones in the month, which is equivalent to thirty taels of silver, and three hundred and sixty taels a year. In this way, Sun Yuanhua and Sima De don't even have the names of serious positions in the Qiongzhou battalion, and nearly 5,000 taels of silver a year are firmly in the bag. And Tan Shan and the others also had more than 2,300 taels in the account, if it was before, Tan Shan and the others would not have earned so much silver without eating or drinking in their lives.

The chamber was full of joy, and everyone had an irrepressible smile on their faces. As the saying goes, thousands of miles of officials are only for money, although it is biased, but no one wants to drink the northwest wind after having an official and a half-post. Tan Shan and the others did not have lofty goals, but just adhered to the concept of hugging the general's thigh and following the general to have meat to eat, so that they could live a good life, and now it seems that it has far exceeded expectations. Sun Yuanhua, Sima De and others have great ambitions, but why not live a more decent life while pursuing political ambitions?

Xia Nan looked at everyone with a smile and smiled, and waited for a while before he spoke: "All the matters have been decided, do you want to go back to the previous topic and do the marriage for Master Lin?" ”

Everyone was in high spirits, and it was even more joyful to do a happy event for the second master, and the interest was very high. Tan Shan said loudly: "We have to do a happy event in Qiongzhou, we have to do it lively, and make it the most decent in Qiongzhou Mansion!" The crowd said yes. (To be continued.) )
